Where Can You Buy Spares Of This Camper Accessory?
We recently became camper owners, and I was reminded of how much buying one is like buying a car.
Like any major purchase, they gave us plenty of options for add-ons for the unit. We were offered extended warranties, paint protection, a weight distribution hitch, camper covers, RV backup cameras, and a whole bunch more.
Two things were surprising though. First, they didn't encourage us to walk around the accessories building at the RV dealership. You have us there spending money, getting a loan within which, we can wrap in accessories, it just seems like a good sales tactic would be to give us an isle-by-isle tour to buy more goodies.
Second, and I'm baffled by this at heavy equipment dealerships, ATV dealerships, and enclosed trailer dealerships. Very rarely if ever have I been asked if I want to purchase additional keys for doors or ignitions.
In theory most people only need two sets of keys or most items they purchase, but I third spare especially for a camper is ideal in my world. That way each person in a couple can have a set and you can strategically place a third either hidden on the unit or in the cab of your tow vehicle.
After remembering I wanted a third set of keys when I found out our toy hauler only had one key for a "garage door", I didn't even bother calling the camper dealership to order more.
A quick Google search of the key numbers I wanted of course brought me to Amazon where I found many ordering options for the keys I needed to put together a third set. For about $15, we now have an "emergency" or "we both forgot the keys" set for the camper.
